~ Release by James (see all versions of this release, 3 available)

Annotation

"23 compositions written and performed by James and Brian Eno. Recorded at Real World during The Laid Sessions 1993".

Marking a change to the previous output of James, this album is based on studio improvisations that are treated heavily with processing effects to create "sound-landscapes located somewhere at the outer edges of aural culture".

Originally released in recycled brown card digipak, with no record label or barcode supplied.
